ARIBO ORIGIN STORY

Corey Clothier co-created ARIBO with the late, great Jim Overholt, the Army’s “Chief Roboticist” in 2011.

ARIBO was built as a national “Living Laboratory” for ground mobile robotics testing and demonstrations. ARIBO aligned military, public sector, and commercial ground vehicle robotics R&D.

ARIBO integrated autonomous robotics technology systems with daily operations. The technology was intended to be used in supervised real world environments and scenarios by end users. The Living Lab also provided a unique arena to engage the end users and enable collaboration between the developers and the users.

The original ARIBO focus areas were similar to early commercial deployments that are starting now, such as, campus based service applications like low-speed logistics, inspection and security. The program developed an international team of collaborators and developed one of the 1st Level-4 autonomous pilots in the US. One of the notable highlights is that ARIBO was endorsed by the White House and we were invited to present to the White House and legislative leadership.
